HEALTH
It is often difficult to give mean -
Mg to words which we use every
dry. One of these words is
"Health," We say that we are
healthy and yet, when asked to ex-
plain what we mean we likely find
it impossible to put our meaning
into words.
In the first place when we are
healthy we are free from any od-
vious disease. That per'hapis is
the commonest idea of health.
Ae long as an individual goes about
his work and does not complain, he
i$ thought of as healthy.
As a matter of fact, such people
are not necessarily healthy 1n any-
thing lite Ole full meaning of the
word. Freedom from actual di-
sease is desirable, but healht is
far more than that Health is some-
thing positive so:metl ung that brings
happiness to us. The person with
health faces the day's work with
confidence, finds pleasure in his
occupation is able to do better
work, and fully enjoy the hours of
relaxation, ,j
It is surpristug the number of
people who spend a more or less
miserable life, unable to acco'miplish
the things of which they are cap-
able because they have not health
le are surprised
These same peop
when, on a medical examination,
they learn thllt•tbere is ,something
wrong with their bodies, something
not ae1110U8 00410(0$ to Cause death,but sufficient to handicap them 111
their daily life and perhaps, to make
them grow prematurely olid.
Again, there are those who miss
the hapiuess that comes with
health and yet are free from any
Physical blemish. These are the
People who are not following the
simple rules of hygienic living. We
cannot roll our bodies of rest, fresh
air or proper food and continue to
have health.
Health is a condition of physical
well-being that comes to those who
are free from physical - defects
and who follow the simple rules of
hygienic living.
